Base Conversion (6)  General Conversion Algorithm  Algorithm 1.1 To convert a number N from base A to base B, use (a) the series substitution method with base B arithmetic, or (b) the radix divide or multiply method with base A arithmetic.  Algorithm 1.2 To convert a number N from base A to base B, use (a) the series substitution method with base 10 arithmetic to convert N from base A to base 10, and (b) the radix divide or multiply method with decimal arithmetic to convert N from base 10 to base B.  Algorithm 1.2 is longer, but easier and less error prone.

Base Conversion (8)  When B = A k  Algorithm 1.3 (a) To convert a number N from base A to base B when B = A k and k is a positive integer, group the digits of N in groups of k digits in both directions from the radix point and then replace each group with the equivalent digit in base B (b) To convert a number N from base B to base A when B = A k and k is a positive integer, replace each base B digit in N with the equivalent k digits in base A.  Examples  (001 010 111. 100) 2 = (127.4) 8 (group bits by 3)  (1011 0110 0101 1111) 2 = (B65F) 16 (group bits by 4)
